Waipoua Reefs surf guide

Surf: Up the Kauri Coast past Dargaville, Waipoua Reefs are a 1h hike south from Waimamaku where isolated, gnarly, challenging waves greet small groups of experts. The beachbreak at Waimamaku breaks with size and power providing winds are from the E. Directions: 1hr hike or maze of forstry tracks - hard to find Environment: West coast access is a real drag with 4WD forestry trails often gated and locked.
